    This place is very low quality food and service. I bought my food and the chubby Hispanic guy with a puffer jacket and black hat was very rude to me and yelling.

    I come here every Sunday and Stephanie always has a big smile on her face when making my bowl. The food is always delicious! 10/10

    The CAVA on M street near Nationals Ball park is absolutely the worst salad I’ve ever had. Everything was old from the cucumbers, spinach, tomatoes were okay. Chicken was definitely not fresh and had to be from yesterday. I am so sick of not getting what I paid for! My salad was just sitting there with n the table. A young lady looked me right in my face and didn’t even attempt to greet me, bag it nothing. I ended up picking it up bagging it myself and walking out!

    This very well may be my favorite CAVA! The entire staff are very professional and their customer service attitude is excellent! The Greek Salad Bowl is my favorite with the Chicken and Rice Bowl my runner-up! Can't forget the fresh pita chips!
